Here am I, doubled over
Curled up on the ground
I'm able to get hurt now
And then be safe and sound
And here am I, singing
From a cosy land
The men who stand in my skin
Have the upper hand -
Take a look at my face
Take a look at the one beside me
Who matters?
Here he is, torn asunder
Hands over his ears, and
How my kin are glad for
Being born over here
But here he is and why not
Her and them aswell
The Traveller, the immigrant
How have I never felt
How they look at my face
How they look at the one beside me
Who matters?
Why do I feel nothing
When I am in my home
And I see you, from a land I've learned
To call not my own?
Why don't I feel Guilty?
And each day less and less?
I see you in my nightmares
I've never even felt
How they look at my name
How they look at the one beside me
How they look in my face
And I can feel their own hate in me -
Take guilt
Take your Great-grandfather's hate and
Taste it
It's hard to swallow -
Take guilt
Take your Great-grandfather's hate and
Taste it -
It's hard
To swallow
It's hard
To swallow
Mm-mm-mm
Swallow
Mm-mm-mm
Swallow
Here am I, doubled over
Curled upon the ground
I'm able to get hurt now
And then be safe and sound
And here am I, singing
From a cosy land
The men who stand in my skin
Have the upper hand
Curled up on the ground
I'm able to get hurt now
And then be safe and sound
And here am I, singing
From a cosy land
The men who stand in my skin
Have the upper hand -
Take a look at my face
Take a look at the one beside me
Who matters?
Here he is, torn asunder
Hands over his ears, and
How my kin are glad for
Being born over here
But here he is and why not
Her and them aswell
The Traveller, the immigrant
How have I never felt
How they look at my face
How they look at the one beside me
Who matters?
Why do I feel nothing
When I am in my home
And I see you, from a land I've learned
To call not my own?
Why don't I feel Guilty?
And each day less and less?
I see you in my nightmares
I've never even felt
How they look at my name
How they look at the one beside me
How they look in my face
And I can feel their own hate in me -
Take guilt
Take your Great-grandfather's hate and
Taste it
It's hard to swallow -
Take guilt
Take your Great-grandfather's hate and
Taste it -
It's hard
To swallow
It's hard
To swallow
Mm-mm-mm
Swallow
Mm-mm-mm
Swallow
Here am I, doubled over
Curled upon the ground
I'm able to get hurt now
And then be safe and sound
And here am I, singing
From a cosy land
The men who stand in my skin
Have the upper hand
